I learned from Chuck Noll in Pittsburgh that speed and explosiveness on defense is the way to build a team. Both are difficult for your opponent to assimilate in practice and then in games it is even harder to match.

Keeping ridiculous hours doesn't mean you'll be successful.

Nothing does more to lubricate the rough spots than a good dose of encouragement.

Everything's not going to go perfect. You're going to have some losses that you're going to have to bounce back from and some things that are a little unforeseen that you're going to have to deal with.

I'm probably going to be an Indianapolis fan.

You have gifts, abilities, and dreams no one else has.

Change isn't always bad; we should always be learning and improving. But the change I was seeing involved principles, not procedures.
